I love to color and style my hair, and I visit
the hair salon almost every month to dye my hair. Hence you can imagine how
damaged my hair is. I have tried a lot of different shampoos and haircare
products over the years to achieve more healthy hair. Well, there are some products
that works on me but I’ve never tried something so unique like Yves Rocher Low
Shampoo & Rinsing Vinegar before.

Let me tell you why below.

Yves Rocher Low Shampoo (200ml | RM43)

According to Yves Rocher, Low Shampoo is shampoo
without foam for healthy hair which is formulated with 99% of natural
ingredient, 0% sulfate, 0% silicone, 0% colorant and 0% paraben which will
change the way we wash our hair.

Inspired
by the No Poo method (no shampoo), Low Shampoo is the new way to wash our hair
without fear of damaging it. This delicate cleansing protects and respects the
integrity of hair fiber and leaves hair silky and healthy. The formula is 99%
of natural origin, 0% sulfate, 0% silicone, 0% colorant and 0% paraben. It is
one of its kind that was launched in Malaysia in April 2016.

How to Use:

To be
applied on wet hair, using fingers to spread the cream down to the ends and
rinse thoroughly.

For
first time users, it is recommended to use Low Shampoo alternatively with your
shampoo in the beginning to allow the hair scalp to gradually recondition and
rebalance itself towards the daily usage of Low Shampoo.

Verdict: Yves Rocher Low Shampoo really is no foam. The creamy texture made it easy to spread the cream
on wet hair. I felt a bit awkward when using it for the first 2 weeks, but I
felt in love with it eventually. Its delicate cleansing formula has made my
hair clean and yet looks smooth and silky naturally. I can feel that my hair is
stronger after using it for 2 months now.

This May, welcome the newly upgraded LANEIGE
Water Bank Gel Cream from LANEIGE Water Bank range that has all new Mini

the skin to naturally create moisture, but also work to strengthen the skin’s
ability to hold the skin to naturally create moisture, but also work to
strengthen the skin’s ability to hold and retain moisture in the skin. The skin
is then able to achieve a 360 degree moisturizing care, leaving it feeling
pumpled and well-moisturizes with a proven 24-hour moisturizing effect. This
enhanced moisturizing ability resolves skin dryness effectively as its 3-tier

each perform differently to suit different skin types.

As the other half
of me, Johnson has been taught to take good grooming with men’s skincare and
body care. So, when Seeties opened the invitation to review the adidas UEFA Champions League Star Edition Body Care Range, I quickly
signed up so that Johnson could try out the products first hand.

Thanks to Seeties and Coty Inc., I received
the handy parcel at my doorstep last week. It was the adidas UEFA Champions League Star Edition Body
Care Range packed in the blue adidas
UEFA toiletry bag.

of Cedarwood Virginia, Patchouli Indonesia and Karanal uplift the fragrance
power in a long-lasting scent worthy of winners.

Food festivals are an excellent way to celebrate life and
culture—and one will soon be held at Resorts World Genting, demonstrating the
beauty of tradition and diversity.

It is Songkran Festival 2016 from 8 to 17 April 2016 at the Coffee
Terrace located on the Lobby Floor of Genting Grand Hotel. That means a
sumptuous array of food, glorious food to celebrate the traditional Thai New
Year.

In Thailand, people in joyous celebration would throw and sprinkle
water at each other. At Coffee Terrace, it is celebrated with a magnificent
buffet spread —offering top quality and variety in its spicy and flavourful
dishes as well as other milder dishes and sweets.

The buffet dinner, served from 5pm to 9.30pm, is priced only at
RM80 nett (adults) and RM40 nett (children) from Sunday to Thursday, and at
RM84 nett (adults) and RM42 nett (children) on Friday and Saturday.

So 2 weekends ago my girl and I headed to Resorts World Genting to
watch the most extraordinary and creepiest magic show. Among the must-see shows at Resorts World
Genting this year is “Fearless! Cheating Death Nightly” that features
“mystician” Aaron Crow whose one-of-a-kind performance never fails to wow his
audience.

With his fusion of magic, suspense, risky stunts and mystery,
Aaron had captured the attention of a crowd without uttering a single word. His
unmatched power and eloquent silence has long since become his onstage
trademark, always leaving his audience at the edge of their seats and longing
for more.

Often described as mental artiste extraordinaire or silent mentalist,
the Belgian has impressed even the likes of Simon Cowell, and is
well-decorated—he was ranked first at the World Championships of Magic, the
largest competition of its kind that is held every three years. There, he
battled against 150 other world renowned acts in front of a crowd of 2,500
people.

Among Aaron's other international achievements were winning World
Champion Mentalism at the 2003 Den Haag XXII World Championships and winning
the Wizard Trophy (Phenomenon category) last year.

Dubbed Belgium's foremost international television sensation,
Aaron has also appeared in numerous TV and gala shows including the popular “Le
Plus Grand Cabaret Du Monde” that featured his Candle and Sword act a whopping
three times. Aaron has also appeared in the biggest TV shows in the world and
was recently featured in Broadway New York, London West End and the iconic
Sydney Opera House. He also enjoyed millions of hits on Youtube.

At Resorts World Genting, Aaron's “Fearless! Cheating Death
Nightly” promises to deliver his unique brand of magic and mystery. The show
will be held at the Genting International Showroom daily from 18 March to 15
May 2016, 9pm; with matinee show at 4pm.

Expect an evening of highly original, heart-stopping, thrilling
and truly spectacular acts that will leave them at the edge of their seats
throughout. In fact, my girl felt a bit scary at first but we were totally amazed with Aaron's entertaining performance! Thanks for bringing us a World class performance!
